Bain & Company Reviews

Pros
My manager and team are truly incredible, so supportive, minimal micromanaging. They TRULY want you to succeed and your compensated for your work. Good work life balance. I’ve had some crazy life circumstances and HR/my manager have gone above and beyond to support me. I’m grateful for my job every single day My VP meets with each employee on our team quarterly, she’s busy but always makes time to meet and provides REAL value to our meetings rather than BS filler convo Oh and the benefits are unreal, especially as a woman of childbearing age. Fertility benefits, etc
Cons
The only thing I can think of potentially is that you’re 100% responsible for your professional development here. You want to be promoted? You will be when you’re meeting specific requirements however.. opportunities won’t be handed to you. You have to ask for opportunities, find gaps and figure out how you’ll be the person to solve them. You’re responsible for scheduling PD chats with colleagues, etc. This isnt necessarily a con, its more just pushing you to be completely self responsible but if I HAD to think of something I could see people struggling with.. it may be this
